[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Chunsu] Good Neighbors Gwangju Jeonnam Regional Headquarters announced on the 26th that it conducted the ‘Revisiting Children in Media’ campaign to enhance children's rights sensitivity in media, in collaboration with Suncheon City.
On this day, Good Neighbors Gwangju Jeonnam Regional Headquarters raised awareness about the negative use of terms referring to children in the media such as ‘~rini, choding, jaemini’ and provided an opportunity to hear directly from the children themselves.
The campaign encouraged reconsidering the use of words related to children from the children's perspective and requested the public to report cases of children's rights violations they encountered in the media.
Bae Junyeol, head of Good Neighbors Gwangju Jeonnam Regional Headquarters, said, “We will actively carry out children's rights advocacy activities to ensure that children's rights are not violated in the media, which greatly influences public perception.”
Heo Seok, mayor of Suncheon City, said, “We are pleased to participate in the campaign to guarantee children's rights in the media together with Good Neighbors Gwangju Jeonnam Headquarters,” and added, “We will work together to ensure that children's rights are protected in the media going forward.”
The ‘Revisiting Children in Media’ campaign is being conducted offline at 52 Good Neighbors branches nationwide and can also be participated in through an online page.
Starting with this campaign, Good Neighbors will carry out the ‘Media Children’s Rights Advocacy Project’ to protect and promote children's rights within the media.
